[Verse 1: Agnetha & Frida]
We're not the stars of a hollywood movie
So what's the use to pretend?
I'm not so charming and you're not so groovy
You've gotta face it, my friend
[Chorus: Agnetha & Frida]
Dream world, you've been living in a dream world
Trust me, you just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl, doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are, we've gotta make it together
And we've made it so far, so it can only get better
[Post-Chorus: Agnetha]
When you reach out
And you say to me, "How I love you, girl"
When I hold you
Baby can't you see? It's a real dream world
[Verse 2: Agnetha & Frida]
You had your hopes and your high expectations
Somehow it doesn't seem right
I'm getting fed up with your accusations
I'm not your angel in white
[Chorus: Agnetha & Frida]
Dream world, you've been living in a dream world
Trust me, you just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl, doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are, we gotta make it together
And we've made it so far, so it can only get better
[Post-Chorus: Agnetha]
When you reach out
And you say to me, "How I love you, girl"
When I hold you
Baby can't you see? It's a real dream world
[Chorus: Agnetha & Frida]
Dream world, you've been living in a dream world
Trust me, you just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl, doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are, we gotta make it together
And we've made it so far, so it can only get better
We're not the stars of a hollywood movie
So what's the use to pretend?
I'm not so charming and you're not so groovy
You've gotta face it, my friend
[Chorus: Agnetha & Frida]
Dream world, you've been living in a dream world
Trust me, you just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl, doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are, we've gotta make it together
And we've made it so far, so it can only get better
[Post-Chorus: Agnetha]
